Strange passage copied from the article
editThis passage doesn't sound very encyclopedic:
- Like Father Gapon, Azef's true loyalties and principles are something of a mystery. He betrayed his fellow revolutionaries for money, but the assassination of Plehve and the Grand Duke was going a bit far even for the Ochrana, yet they continued to employ him. Was he double-crossing them as well? It is said that after his exposure as a double agent, Azef told an acquaintance that giving half a chance he would even have killed the Tsar!
Improvements welcome. --Amir E. Aharoni 19:08, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
I believe the link to the Dmitry Galkovsky's story should be removed. It's an opinion piece suggesting that Azef and Parvus were British spies, and thus Boris Berezovsky must also be a British spy. The story doesn't contain any facts about Azef, or any facts at all. It's made of guesses. Proski (talk) 02:21, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

The article says he joined the Socialist-Revolutionary Party in 1898, but the SRs were created in 1901. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.214.199.188 (talk) 17:12, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I realize "Yevno" is undoubtedly accurate for his name
editBut I had read about Eugene Azeff in contemporary(ish) American sources of the time, and it was only through fortuitous coincidence that I actually found this page. It seems a shame to not at least mention that being the one-time English transliteration, at least for the English Wikipedia. 50.135.255.40 (talk) 04:16, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
